Brian Eno // "Although great new ideas are usually articulated by individuals, they are nearly always generated by communities. And I think what I see is the waste, the waste that we make of that possibility of cooperative intelligence. Being an artist you hear a lot of talk about 'genius,' which is the process of singling out certain people in art history and saying those were the important ones…you know Picasso, Rembrandt, whatever… Whenever you look at any of those artists you find that they lived and drew from a very, very active flourishing cultural scene and they were only one of the elements in that scene. All these people that are called 'genius' actually sat in the middle of something I call 'scenius.' So just as genius is the creative intelligence of an individual, 'scenius' is the collective intelligence of a community."
